The City Part II
Ocean Symphony:
Its all bout the city/
We grind till we get it/
Nothings gon stop us no never we ready risk it to win big/
So come get you some right here in the 941/
Its do or die to the fullest the best is yet to come/
Its all bout the city/
We grind till we get it/
Nothings gon stop us no never we ready risk it to win big/
So come get you some right here in the 301/
Its do or die to the fullest the best is yet to come/
In the city x2

Verse 1:
From the city I was molded/
Moved a lot as a kid but out of every place/
This is where my home is/
When I moved didn't know the drugs were sold in/
Every direction/
My brother could not control it /
He couldn't stop didn't matter how bad he was scolded /
And it got so bad that he ran out of money /
Then he stole shit from me /
It's funny he didn't think i would notice/
Worst part about it that it happened to my cousin /
Then he od'ed and I loved him like a brother /
We were at his funeral and my brother came and hugged me /
Told me that would never to happen to him /
But it meant nothing /
Because now he's locked up
And he's writing me /
I haven't replied /
I don't know if I can speak
To him /
Trying to iron out the kinks, call it irony/
Cuz I'm too heated to be straight with this entire thing /
Look at what the city made you /
Little sis growing up in the same schools
Where the people are quick to betray you /
Cuz if you disagree with them they will be bound to hate you /
On the surface it looks like a white collar environment /
The city has the money but the wrong stigmas assigned to it /
Number one beach, palm trees all a lie
See for yourself walk the city streets with me tonight /
Chorus
Ryanito:
Verse 2:
I come from a city of dreams, city of schemes/
Shout out my homie rick who showed me exactly what that means/
We live amongst fiends/
Look like the dead walking/
But i ain't norman reedus clutch that crossbow while I’m talking/
I was boss since 17/
And little did i know that i would balance in this game like a room full of triple beams/
Forever called a beast/
For how i articulate the flow and bounce right on top the beat, ya see?/
Products of environments that make us violent while you sleep/
At supper time with nines pointing right at where you eat/
This is life everyday /
In the city that i stay/
Born inside conditions that if your rich that you can't even say/
So its time to make way/
While the future being paved/
I will lift my people up there’ll be no more of us enslaved/
Like i was Nas it was written right here on this very page/
And i won’t stop until my third dimension vessel meets the grave/
Uh
Chorus
